<p>So, I just got my financial aid from Vanderbilt, and it is like half of what I got last year. So, I may not be able to afford it. I’m considering transferring back home to NJ. I am a rising sophomore. What NJ schools, or in the area of NJ, are still accepting applications for the fall? I would consider spring transfer too if it’s too late for the fall. I’d prefer a school that’s not too bad. At least a decent school, but one that is relatively cheap or will give me good financial aid and/or scholarships.</p>
<p>Rutgers has rolling admission. You could TRY Princeton since they have a RIDICULOUS endowment and give out thousands of full scholarships every year. Their transfer acceptance rate is 1% or maybe even lower though, so idk.</p>
<p>Other then that there aren’t really any good schools in NJ, especially public ones. You could try University of Richmond in Virginia…they have a **** ton of money and are known to be the best school in the country for financial aid. Pretty good school too!</p>
<p>Heyy not to be negative or anything, but Princeton doesn’t accept transfers.</p>
<p>mrchipmunk: Aw, so sorry!! I had thought Vandy’s FA was in good shape?</p>
<p>Anyway, you don’t say whether you are interested in a public or private, but NACAC has a survey stating which schools still have room in their classes (there is another thread about this elsewhere)…</p>
<p>btw, have you met with Vandy’s FA office to find out why this happened?</p>
<p>montclair state university is a pretty good school too btw</p>
<p>Here’s the link to the 2009 NACAC Space Available Survey. You can use the drop-down box to search for New Jersey schools.</p>
